How Much Money do You Have in the Bank?

OP

Personal Savings of around £7500, my grandad always taught me to save my money so every christmas and birthday I just put money in the bank. I'm currently 17.. Some of the money came from inheritance and some came from my job :-)

Seriously though, £1500 is good, way more than any of my mates who are your age who don't have a penny to their name. Best of luck in finding a job though, try football clubs, they seem to have a job going every week - thats how I got mine :smile:

Congratulations on your savings, and thanks very much :smile:

What do you work as at the football club? is it as a steward, or something else?

Erm why don't you try like tutoring?

I'm considering it, but I shall wait to hear back from these job applications, as I posted another one off today. Fingers crossed.

How are things with you anyways?

£9000 in a fixed rate bond and £3000 in a cash ISA.
Around £2000 of all that is from my work but some of my relatives died recently... :frown:

But £1500 is good!

about £4000 personal savings (was planning on going to Sharm el Sheikh which is why i saved but decided against it because of the current situation) and £800 in my business account (tax man hit me hard :frown:

)

Having any money saved at 21 is pretty good tbh, would say you are definitely doing better than most

-£1200 in my current account, oops! Have a bursary coming in soon though, luckily! Have about £300 in my rainy day account and don't know about savings because my parents control all that stuff so I can't waste it all on shiny, pretty things.
